Tumblr has been doing this for weeks. Got some hype early then people stopped caring and just kept scrolling through the feeds. But Facebook is a vastly different beast. Creators and curators have a different relationship with the audience. This is the new $1 bling people used to give each other back in the day.

Introducing: Highlighted Posts February 3, 2012 Every now and then, a post comes along that’s meant for big things. It could be pulling the wraps off your new project, promoting your next show, raising awareness for a cause, or just sharing a truly incredible photo. Today you’ll have a new option to Highlight those extra-important posts. For one dollar, your post will stand out in the Dashboard with a customizable sticker to make sure your followers take notice! http://staff.tumblr.com/post/16980189397/highlighted-posts http://staff.tumblr.com/post/16980189397/highlighted-posts This seems to be a little different than Facebook's highlighted posts. Highlighted posts on Tumblr are distinguishable and would not be more visible than regular posts. (I'm assuming Tumblr dashboards are not filtered by relevance.)
